Problems with new font
Hello, I installed a new font in my LaTeX 2.02 on a Suse Linux 9.1 The creation of all the necessary files worked fine. I did all the installation of files as root, but all files are readable to all users. When I use Lyx as root it works fine and I can create a pdf. But as soon as I log in as normal user I cannot create a pdf with lyx directly, I get an error message, which just tells me, that there was a fault executing When I export it as dvi and use dvips file.ps it works. My files are in the following directories: I added p +llc.map in the config.ps file in var/lib/texmf/dvips/config I added a file llc.map in the same directory, this file contains the line llcr8r LucidaCasual TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont 8r.enc llcr8a.pfb The file llcr8a.pfb lies in /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/lucida Thanks for any hints...

If so it is highly recommended to use TeXLive instead. teTeX is not maintained since a few years and the teTeX author recommended to use TeXLive. Concerning your special problem, I cannot help you as it looks like a file permission problem in your Suse version. It might disappear when using TeXLive or when upgrading from Suse 9.1 to a more recent version. regards Uwe
Re: Problems with new font
OK, I checked the permissions, there was a fault now everything ist perfect. The reason why I don't upgrade ist that Lyx with teTeX 2.02 is much faster to produce pdfs than all newer versions! My typical files have 200 pages and 100 eps figures. I discussed this rather strange behavior a couple of years ago and decided to stick to the old lyx (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/34234/focus=34251) Regards Robert
